raised in bis own green house. Old Billy
W. sat in one corner OF the car, and poor
mother with sickly child in her lap sat in
the corner opposite. The child looked al
the grapes wistfully as the car rolled on
square after square. At last the old man,
in tone of rasping curiosity, asked the
child where she was going.
ITO the park, sir, to see the grass and

do you like grapes?"
Yes SIR" and the pale little face
frightened up as the child half rose from
her mothers lap.
The old man lifted up his basket of lus-
cious fruit and plucking one grape from q
gigantic bunch, gave it to the child.
The rest OF the passengers said nothing,
but the way they looked at the old man
would have split stone post.

A striking illustration of the esteem in
which the st. Paul Carpet company is held
is revealed in the suddenness with which
the stock offered at their recent fire sale
was closed out to the old friends of the
company. In consequence it was able to
open its popular store in the Sherman block
with new stock of indispensable carpets,
window decorations. draperes and rugs that

Coun1y omrni.siouers.

Mayor Rice was absent from the special
meeting of the county commissioners yester-
day, and as it requires unanimous consent to
transact business at a special meeting, no
business could be transacted. The other
commissioners, however, went into executive
session, and for a long time were engaged in
discussion. The meeting was called to con-
slider what legislation is desirable for Ramsey
county, but when the meeting adjourned the
commissioners would say nothing about what
had been considered.

The other side of the quincy Case.

On further inquiry it is ascertained that
the statement in yesterdays paper as to the
accident to John Quincy. on the Milwaukee
road in August, 1885, is not correct. Quincy
was stealing a ride on freight train, and in
attempting to jump of had his legs cut off.
The railroad employees knew nothing OF it. He
was discovered at the side Of the tracks by a
farmer and told him what is stated at that
time. He also gave the same account OF the
accident to Drs. Murphy and Quinn, of this
CITY, when brought here for treatment.

IF Green Smith had the legal right to call
the Senate to order yesterday, then Auditor
Rice had no business there. Section 4961 of
the Revised Statutes says: ''In the absence
of the Lieutenant governor, the Auditor Of
State shall preside at the organization of the
Senate" hom one end of the Revised Stat
utes to the other the only possible connection
the Auditor of State is given officially with
the organization of the Senate is to ''preside"
in a certain contingency. Was such contin-
gency present yesterday? If so, then Auditor
of State Rice abandoned duty imposed upon
him by law. If the contingency was not
present, then Auditor Of State Rice had no
official connection with the organization
whatever and his presence was an imperti-
nent and unwarrantable intrusion. The chief
burglar continually alluded to his voluntary
artful dodger as ''The Auditor" recognizing
him officially. The action of the Auditor, as
